Stampr Adds Timestamps And More To Native iPhone Camera App

Apple’s iPhone 4 has become one of the world’s favorite cameras over the last year. A cursory look at the photo stats from Flickr shows just how popular the iPhone 4 is when it comes to taking snaps, with huge numbers of photographs uploaded daily.

If you’re a budding iPhone photographer and have a hankering for the good old days when photos had timestamps then you’re in luck.
A new Cydia tweak, Stampr, brings timestamps to the iPhone’s camera app. Not only can you now have a handy reminder of the date and time you took the photo, but you can also add custom text via the app’s settings. Also in there you’ll find options for changing the text size and color – plenty for you to make your timestamps look just the way you want them for the maximum shot of nostalgia.

One nice feature that may get overlooked is the way Stampr actually saves two photos to your camera roll – one with the timestamp and one without. Useful for those that might want a pristine, unaltered version of their photos for editing, printing or distributing later.

You will, of course, need to have a jailbroken iPhone, iPad or iPod touch to install it. Follow our step by step guide to jailbreak your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch on iOS 4.3.1 with Redsn0w, PwnageTool 4.3 (untethered | tethered) on Mac, or with Sn0wbreeze on Windows, or on iOS 4.3.2 with Redsn0w, PwnageTool 4.3 (tethered), or with Sn0wbreeze on Windows, or on iOS 4.3.3 using Redsn0w, PwnageTool, Sn0wbreeze if you haven’t already.
Stampr is available from the iOS jailbreak store, Cydia and costs absolutely nothing.

How AT&T Tracks Unauthorized Tethering On |Your Jailbroken iPhone, And How To Hide It From Them

If you cast your minds back a couple of months, you’ll remember how we told you that AT&T had begun clamping down on people using tethering on their iPhones without paying for the upgraded tethering plan. Emails and SMS messages were sent informing customers that if they continued to tether they would be charged for it. At the time we weren’t sure how AT&T knew which people were actually tethering, but now we do and more importantly, we know how to get around it.
Today iPhoneDownloadBlog pointed out a snippet from a post over on AndroidPolice that is of particular interest to unauthorized iOS tethering users. Turns out they know how AT&T was able to tell when customers were tethering.

The latest version of PdaNet comes complete with an option specifically for hiding tethering from AT&T – presumable this option changes the APN the app uses for routing data. TetherMeis another app that appears to be one AT&T can’t track, though PdaNet does seem to be the best bet if you want to avoid your carrier’s tethering charges.
So, if you’re not too keen on paying for your data twice, jailbreak your iPhone and give PdaNet a whirl – it’s available via Cydia right now.

Cydia 1.1 Released – Major Update | Speed and Memory Improvements| Lots More

Cydia – the leading (and currently only) iOS jailbreak app store – has received a major update today, to Version 1.1.1. The list of what’s new in 1.1.1 includes:

• the ability to run and operate Activator, libstatusbar, and SimulatedKeyEvents while Cydia is running
• an overall speed improvement, including the “Loading Changes” dialog
• “much less” memory usage
• a more advanced search mechanism with a new relevancy algorithm
• better management of broken repositories

I’ve just updated Cydia on my iPhone 4. It needed a couple of restarts of Cydia and a restart of springboard to get Cydia itself and other package changes fully done. It does seem a little snappier in just a quick runaround the app, looking at the Manage area and installed packages as well as looking at the main sections and individual app pages. Having said that, individual app pages still vary wildly in their loading and general appearance – individual repos are still left to their own devices, without any standards imposed, from what I can gather.
For a great rundown of what is in – and not in – this Cydia upgrade, see this interview of Saurik (Jay Freeman), the creator of Cydia, by our friends at iPhone Download Blog:http://www.iphonedownloadblog.com/2011/03/15/saurik-what-to-and-what-not-to-expect-from-the-next-version-of-cydia/
What do you all think of the new Cydia so far?  Better, faster, cleaning more stains than other detergents?
